Title: Chest pain
Post by: Chopstick33 on March 03, 2012, 02:45:50 pm
I been on paleo diet for about 2 month now and recently I been getting chest pain. A real sharp pain.It's goes on and off. Heartburn? The pain is more in the center of chest. Has anyone experienced this before? I'm a part time paleo. I have raw for breakfast and dinner. Cook for lunch because I work with a crew and lunch are included. I'm just worried because I never felt that pain before.

I get this sometimes when I eat cooked foods. Never with raw foods, except when I went raw, zero-carb for certain periods.

I do not know from what health problems you came from before going raw paleo.
I would look into the state of your liver. Ever done liver cleanse procedures?
How old are you? What job do you do?
Sometimes it's not the heart, just muscle pain.
Have you seen a chiropractor? Acupuncturist?

What foods do you eat raw and what cooked. Basically if you could list your daily menu. It is easier to figure rather than guessing.

I'm am 30 yr old. I refinish and install hardwood floor for a living. In the morning I don't really have time so I eat 4-5 raw egg. Lunch time I usually have cook food. Mostly rice and meat. For dinner I eat raw food such as beef meat, fish, bone marrow, fruits, eggs, liver and little beef back fat. I hope I'm eating right. Thanks ya

Machining hardwood creates pretty nasty toxic dust and fumes. Maybe that has something to do with anything. I know a guy who had to stop working with hardwood because he developed a severe astmatic response to the wood(dust) even when working with all kind of protection. in addition to stopping working with the woods he had to use steroids and antibiotic to get his situation under controll. He wasn't on a RPD.

An ionic air cleaner might help a bit, but wood dust is not nice stuff. There are places on the web that list what effect each type of wood has.
Those little paper filters are't worth the powder to blow them to HE double hockey stick . :)

I'm not sure if it's the wood dust. Why wood the beef fat cause chest pain? Should I stop eating it. I thought that we need to consume a percentage of fat to be healthy. Will coconut oil work the same?

Can you describe your chest pain more, When does it occur, time of day, is it with exertion or rest? Where exactly in chest centerIs it near sternum or at nipple line? Does it radiate to your back, arms, etc. Is it always stabbing. Is it worse in any position, or associated with deep breathing. Do you feel pressure with the pain. I hope you are resting at least during these episodes and taking deep relaxed breaths, If your heart muscle isn't getting good blood flow you can exacerbate the problem if try to push through the pain. You could try taking a baby aspirin and see if it makes it better , or worse (more likely upper GI ulcer). If you don't want to take aspirin, then just read that fish oil and reservatrol are a good combo blood thinner. That was on jackkruse.com go to search bar on far left about 1/2way down. Of course you should start googling like crazing and learning everything you can, because it is bad to have chest pain and there isn't a safe effective way to handle it medically, so try to know as much as possible before going to hospital. let us know whatever you decide It could also be a rib subluxation, doctors prescribe ibuprofen for weeks to get the swelling down - very painful. Topical ice and heat alternating can be effective for this, do you see a chiropractor?
